Random James Bond Tribute Build Request

[Matuchkin]

You know what? I like the James Bond films, and, with all those movie replicas circulating around the forums, I felt the need to make a nice little tribute to James.

Felt...

Now, my horrible building skillz have taken their toll, and I have grown less patient. I hereby nominate this thread to anyone who wants to do the following.

From the Books

- battleship-grey Bentley 4½ Litre

-  Mark II Continental Bentley

-  Aston Martin DB Mark III

From the Films

-  Aston Martin V8 Vantage

-  Aston Martin V12 Vanquish

- Aston Martin DBS

- Lotus Esprit

and, finally, the legendary Aston Martin DB5.

Bonus

Little Nellie modified autogyro from the film You Only Live Twice (make it powered, it's impossible to make autogyros in KSP)

Extra amazingness if cinematic is made of a KSP dub of the famous Little Nellie aerial showdown with four Bell 47 helicopters (You Only Live Twice).

 

And finally, a last touch:

hehehe... So you think  You just have to tinker with mast and blade angles... http://kerbalx.com/flipnascar/Colibri-MkF---Autogyro (doesn't work in 1.0.5)

A lotus esprit sub would be cool

I actually tried to make the Little Nellie myself once...

I failed and gave up.

Anyways, I actually saw your Colibri autogyro a few months ago on the spacecraft exchange. It was awesome. Can you make the Little Nellie, and somehow make it dogfight over a volcano with four Bell 47s? Rep will literally be your salary on these forums. I permit you to use tweakscale and all mods possible to make it (tweakscale mandatory, because the Little Nellie is extremely small).

I'm not really into mods.. But if you want to take that Colibri and tweakscale it, use it as a base, feel free to have at it and rip it apart. Do whatever you want with it, it's out there in the public domain. Although with the Mk0 fuel tank you can probably make a smaller bearing now, but you'll alway run into the problem of needing an exaggeratedly large rotor disc.

I'm actually considering that. One last question, how do you make parts yellow?

It's all stock... so if it's yellow I assume you mean the Round 8 Fuel tanks? I just added a whole bunch and rotated each one individually. You could also just install Kerbpaint and do it that way.

I actually use procedural parts and tweakscale to give the Little Nellie it's actual size and shape. I can use the round 8s, but the Little Nellie is pure yellow and white. Have you watched You Only Live Twice?

You can use Kerbpaint, it works on most older parts, you need to get the download from the end of the thread not the start and delete the old module manager dll

I made a modded little nellie a while ago, but I can't seem to find it.

Got some WIP pics of it:

This is amazing. You're the only person I met who new the movie You Only Live Twice. How about the two missiles on it's underside?

If there is a film creator viewing this, he should create a cinematic of the Little Nellie's famous chase with four Bell 47s.

I added that later, but I can't find any pics.
